The drake was with HAMs and jav HAMs outdamaging every other BC at 10km and beyond in the old version, so it needed a nerf (jav hams having 100 km range does not change anything there, the problem would still be there if they had a more sensible range of 40 km).
-1 turret was IMO plenty there, though, an kinetic instead ROF bonus was not needed.

Omen to Harbinger is an incredible leap in power, Caracal to Drake? LOL.
This might be because the Omen is far far far far....far far far worse the the Caracal

Perhaps, and the Drake is far far far far ..... far far far worse than the Harbinger.
Omens issue is mostly with fittings, is it not?
Fittings are a big part of it, but it's not only that. Let's say just imagine the caracal with 4 launchers and, should it want to fit 4 heavy missile launchers, only being able to fit a frigate sized tank. And, of cource, not being able to fit any EW modules to make up for this.
And, while I agree that changing the ROF bonus was a bit too much the drake is still not *that* bad - it has compared to the other BCs an insane tank.
Personally I would give it back it's ROF bonus, but nerf it's shield recharge *significantly* so it won't be able to mount the passive shieldtank of doomÖ as it can ATM.

it was not just the bonuses for the BC i was talking about i was talking about all ships with the missile bonus and all with the drone bonus.
Thats already build in in the drones.
Caldari missiles:
100% dps with kinetic
80% dps with other damage types
Drones:
100% dps with thermal ones
90% dps with kinetic ones
80% dps with explosive ones
70% dps with EM ones
You see a pattern there?

The problem is that the drakes tank was and still is rediciously strong.
And this isn't mainly because the resistance bonus. Thats only a 33% boost.
That the ferox can mount an good passive tank on TQ is no secret. On test the drake has 2.1 times the shield, but the same shield recharge rate. Which is compared to it an 110% boost.
If you want to increase the dps of the drake you have to nerf its shield recharge rate.
